Cape Town motorists urged to renew vehicle licence before year-end

The City of Cape Town encourages residents who are due to renew their vehicle licences to do so as soon as possible, to avoid long queues. The last two months of the year are usually the busiest time for the motor vehicle registration offices as higher volumes and longer queues are expected.

Early last year, the City implemented the first ticketing system in the motor vehicle renewal and licensing section. It is hoping to expand this service throughout Cape Town. It anticipates to reduce discomfort for customers.

The City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Finance, Alderman Ian Neilson said that the City has put measures in place to deal with the high volume that is traditionally experienced during the holiday season. However, he warned that residents should still expect longer waiting during this time. Neilson reminded residents that they can renew their licence discs online as well.
